If you enjoy animals, nature or people, you already have a powerful foundation to create stability and momentum in your life. What you might struggle with isn't a label. It's an experience. Start where you're at, and explore it with somebody who will start there with you. Need change or just greater balance? Want more out of life? On a journey, but somehow lost? Feeling stuck, apathetic, burnt out or anxious is not uncommon! However, the tools and how to use them are not always obvious. Animal assisted, experiential, mindfulness and nature-based therapies are most clients' favorite tools.
I offer strengths-based, client-centered approaches to counseling with close attention to internal systems theory. My philosophy uses a holistic, integrative lens to empower the individual with resilience, strategically strengthen protective factors, plant healthy seeds of change and “think in the gray” instead of relying on narrow solutions.
Human-animal interaction, mind-body connection (yoga, qigong, meditation and movement), nature-based healing and other alternative therapies are potent, evidence-based models. If you would like to begin a journey inward, let's design a path forward that fits you!
